MIDDLEBORO – Police have identified the 40-year old Mansfield man killed in a single car accident Monday night after his vehicle rolled over on Interstate 495 near exit 6.

State police say the victim, Eric Alland of Ware Street, was traveling northbound just after 6 p.m. on April 7 when he lost control of his Jeep Wrangler and rolled over several times before stopping in the right travel lane.

Police were alerted to the crash by several passing motorists who called 911, a state police spokesman said.

Alland was taken to Morton Hospital and Medical Center in Taunton where he died of his injuries.

The right travel lane of I-495 northbound was closed until 7:50 p.m. to allow for rescue operations, investigation and clean up.

State police, State Police Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section, and Massachusetts State Police Crime Scene Services are investigating the incident.

Mansfield Fire Chief Neal Boldrighini said his department did not respond to the accident as first noted in the press release.
